About this Event

This event will be held at Kurilpa Hall.

About the book

Anthology of remarkable and rarely told stories of Queensland lives from queer writers spanning almost 80 years of rich and dynamic social histories that are as varied as the landscape itself. Blending fiction, memoir, poetry and images, Queersland brings to light the struggle to survive in a culture that has barely tolerated difference and at times violently suppressed it. Funny, raw, heartbreaking and brave, the stories shine a light on our potential for sex and love beyond the normativities, and ultimately for our evolution to a more compassionate and generous way of being in our world.

Contributors include:

Dawn Daylight, Krissy Kneen, Steve MinOn, Wolfram-Jaymes Keesing, Paul Andrew, Lucinda Shaw, Sally Mansfield, Ruth Gardner, Angela Wren, Chantal Eastwell, Connor Crossley, David Kelly, Odette Best, Patrick Shepherdson, Jackie Ryan, Garrett Huxley, Grace Doyle, James Tolcher, Hugh Kilpatrick, Robert Phillips, Shane Rowlands, Georgina Maxine, James Lees, Edwina Shaw, and Rod Goodbun (and others).
